    Default spring break effect?

    So has anyone else noticed that Khyber has been really slow lately? Seems like getting LFMs filled is taking a long time. Is this some sort of spring break/bunny holiday phenomenon where people are vacationing or out and about, not logging on? Just wondering...

    Perhaps it is just the core group who are often the LFM' posters are off checking things on Lamannia right now. If all the changes go thru as currently implemented, don't expect to be seeing more LFM's in the future than you are seeing now....multiple disincentives to inviting unknowns to the party....

    Happens every time they decide to release stuff to a test server.

    You'd think someone would realize that impacting the quality of live server play is not a good idea.

    And spring break was last month! So it has to be the test server.

    Well, I guess people could be on Lama but I've been on there a bit, and unless everyone is annomous there aren't that many people on at any given time and if you split them up between all the servers I really don't think it could be making that much difference. Also, I wasn't talking about the lack of LFMs I was talaking about the length of time to fill them.

    This may have been true in the past, but Turbine was thoughtful enough to outsource you to a lag company.

    I remember this happening before they released mod 7, and mod 8. I think people are waiting for it. Especially those with capped characters. My prediction: When mod 9 hits the servers, there will be an influx for 16 hours until all the currently capped folks hit 20. Then it'll all go back to quietville until mod 10.
